Diet Leek and potato soup

Diet Leek and Potato Soup Recipe – comfort food from my childhood: Every weekend that I am in London I wander over to the Farmers’ Market at Oval.  My first stop is always the same.  I go to the first farm stall to buy chicken carcasses – 4 for a pound.  I boil them up […]

Thai marinated prawns - Low Calorie Diet Barbecue Dishes

Jumeirah Lowndes Terrace BBQ Class – Low Calorie Thai marinated tiger prawns With a faltering attempt at Spring this week and a cloudless blue sky this afternoon, this particular post seems almost relevant.  On the afternoon of the planned barbeque demonstration at the Jumeirah Lowndes Hotel, however, a thunderstorm, hail and fierce winds had me […]

Curried Parsnip Soup

Curried Parsnip Soup for the 5:2 Diet. I didn’t plan to write this recipe for curried parsnip soup up on London-Unattached nor was I doing a 5:2 diet fast day when I made it, but when I was busy eating it yesterday for lunch and tweeting (yes I know…it’s sad!) three people asked me how […]

Low-Calorie Vegetable Curry for the 5-2 Diet: I was sent a large box of rather beautiful organic fruit and vegetables from  Soil and Seed last week.  Now,  when I was asked if I would like to trial one of the boxes I looked at the range currently on offer and was a little bit thrown. […]

5-2 diet vegetable and shirataki noodle stirfry with unearthed prawns

5-2 Diet Tips – Eat Well and Cook Less? OK, a guilty little secret about me and the 5-2 fast diet.  I enjoy cooking on 5-2 diet fast days.  Maybe a masochistic tendency, maybe just  wanting to keep busy.  But like everyone there are days when I simply don’t have time to make home-made soups.  […]

Total Greek Sea Bream - served

A Greek Recipe for the 5:2 Diet and some Hellenic Memories: My first visit to Greece was a shock. I was on a Schools Cruise – in the 1970s some of the cruise liners used to rent out space in the bows of the ship to school groups. We flew from London to Athens into […]

August 17, 2012 by Fiona Maclean 3 Comments

celery and spinach soup

Unplanned 5:2 diet fast and a 5:2 Soup Recipe! OK, yesterday I might just have overdone things a bit – hence the idea that I might need an extra 5:2 diet day (does that make it 4:3?).  Lunch was a review meal at Kitchen Italia and Dinner another review meal at Bombay Brasserie.  It would […]

October 14, 2012 by Fiona Maclean 4 Comments

5-2 diet celeriac and watercress soup

5:2 Diet Recipe – Celeriac and Watercress Soup My holiday in Sicily and a backload of work has meant I’ve really been slacking a bit with the 5:2 diet and low calorie recipes.  When I have managed a 5:2 diet fast day, the food I’ve eaten has been extremely simple and not really worthy of […]
